headrest question

[fratedog]

The front headrests on my BD, with no mid or higher package, are not adjustable. Owners manual seems to indicate there are ones that do. My question is; Is there an adjustable headrest available in MGV when you get the higher end packages. Was just at the Ford dealer and the computer does not indicate any difference, adjustability-wise, between the various colors and materials for replacement headrest.

Adjust up and down? Yes. Forward/backwards? Not that I've noticed.

Mine adjust forward and backward with the leather interior.

I have a BD with the mid package. They don't adjust forward/backward, just higher/lower.

A great question, does anyone know if the headrests move fore/aft on the lux package, or is it just on the leather package?

Only the leather package gets you headrests that have a tilt adjustment. Non-leather have a fixed forward angle that only adjusts up and down.

Willing to bet that any of the leather upgrade interiors include adjustable headrests, just like the leather gets you power seats and a rear arm rest

Thanks, believe y’all have cracked the code… unless you go leather you don’t get the back and forth adjustability. Didn’t take long either!

Thank you for clarifying this for me. I will see if the set angle is appropriate for me when I do the off-roadeo in Moab next month. If it is like my existing ranger, I will have to pay for the upgrade to leather as the headrest angle on the ranger is very uncomfortable.

Is there a way to after market a single driver headrest? Might something else fit?

Flip it around maybe?

True for 4dr but even leather in 2dr doesn't get power seats (or arm rest)

Hmm, I drove a base Day 1 at Off Roadeo and I couldn’t believe it…headrest was angled super forward and not angle-adjustable. OBX w/leather Day 2 was adjustable. I didn’t even think MGV in BL would lack angle-adjustment and that’s my interior…shit

I'll snap a photo of mine. It doesn't seem to be at a bad angle. One sec.

Thanks! Yeah, that’s not bad at all.
